that he caters en- route for ali the attaches

he was purchasing quantity of provis-

them TO 1.-THE steward of the Forepaugh
show.n When he had completed his pur-
chases he said: isn't there something in
this for megn the remark being instigated
BY the fact that the stewards Of hotels,

those of whom they make purchases. The
grocer quietly handed him SO bill and
then extended the account to be marked

A Mig Profit for somebody.

We have just been reading about the
distribution of the profits on a. ST. 30 book
On the first 1000 the stereotyper loses six
cents per copy, the publisher Loses
eighteen cents, the author loses ten cents,
the printer loses his time and the reader
loses his patience. You see there isn't
really very much made on the first /, 900;
the profits develop more fully on the sue
ceeding thousands. Suppose, for instance,
you decide to publish an edition of 5, 600;
you lose 800 on the first 1000. Then
you change your mind and dom publish
the other 1000. Yon make $400 on them,
it? Well, don't you ever publish book,
then, that's all; You haven't the real
authors instinct; you have no genius.
